CONCERNING

HUSBANDRY AND ANIMAL HEALTH

I. GENERAL.

The Republic of Indonesia isa Stateof islands that has

tremendous various biological assets (mega biodiversity)

in the form of animal and plantsresources asa gift and

at the sametime mandated by the Oneand OnlyGod

and therefore all these need to be utilzied and pre­

served in accomplishing the welfare of the Indonesian

people, assetforth in the Preamble of the 1945Consti­

tution of the RepublicofIndonesia Year 1945.

In the contextand utilizingand preserving the biologi­

cal variety it is necessary to implement separate

husbandy andanimal healtheffort or integratedlywith

agricultural andplantationcultivation, fishery, and for­

estry, with approach to agrobusiness system, husbandry

andanimalhealthsystem, and applicationof the prin­

cipalof continuous, safetyand health, people oriented

and justice, transparency and integration, indepen­

dence, partnership, and professionalism.

Theforegoing must be implemented synergically in or­

derto protectandimprove thequalityof animal resouce;

provide safe, healthy, solid, andpermissible food in the

improvement of integrityof the people, animal,anden­

Vironment, provideService and industrial basicmate­

rial, develop scienfical knowledge and technology, im­

provethe State's revenue andexchange, expand busi­

ness opportunityandjob opportunity,and improvethe

welfare of the people.To accomplish the objective in

the implementation of husbandry, it is necessary to

developnew perceptionand paradigm on husbandry

on investment, innovation, and empowerment so as

husbandrycontinueto exist and improvefor improve­

ment of the nation competitiveness to be equal with

other moredeveloped nations.

Toaccomplish the objectivein the development of ani­

mal health it is necessary developnew perception and

paradigm on animal health with the purpose of main­

taining animal health nationawide, the territory of the

must be protected from disease threat and/or distur­

bance to humanhealth, animaland plantshealth, and

theirecosystem; andguarantee safe, healthy, solid, and

permissible food originatingfrom animal.

Thegoverning in the implementation of husbandry and

animal health in one law is due to the existence of in­

terrelationand interdependence between the two sec­

tors. Besides the governingby one law shallestablish

one unit of national legalized system that facilitatethe

Government and Regional Government andall stake­

holders doingbusiness on husbandry andanimal health

in perceiving and implementing various provisions in

this Law. Furthermore, a change isalsotakingplace in

the administration based on the Lawon Regional Ad­

ministration that obliges re-structuring all matters in

the implementation of husbandry andanimal health.

Based on this consideration, the policyon implemen­

tation of husbandry shall be emphasized on the eco­

nomic social aspect, while implementation of hus­

bandry and animal health shall prioritize securityas­

pect from diseasethreat and effort to avoid risk that

perturbs the health of human being, animal, plants

and .

andthe environment. With this policy, implementation

of husbandry with the approach to agrobusiness sys­

tem and implementation of animalhealthshall becon­

ductedbased on national animalhealthsystem.

Thescope of goveming the implementtion ofhusbandry

shallcoverthe land or plot of land, water, genetic re­

source, germ,seed, ovule, food,device andmachinery

for husbandry, cultivation, harvest and post-harvest,

marketing, and process of husbandry product. While

the scope governing implementation of animalhealth

shall involve animaldisease, animal medicine, device

and machinery, health of veterinarian, welfare of the

animal, and veterinery authority. With respect to

strengthening the function, animalhealthservice, ani­

mal healthforce, medical reproduction, medical pres­

ervation, forensic by veterinarian and medical docter's

comparison.

Tosupportsuccess in the implementation ofhusbandry

andanimal health, it isalsogoverned empowerment of

the breeders, husbandry business and animal health

service, development of human resource, research and

development, andcapitalresource.

It isawarethat the governingof this Lawfails to fully

cover animal aspect in the broad sense. The extent

of the new governing on cultivated animal, l.e. live­

stock, pet animal, and laboratory animal. Forall this

a separate law shall be necessary that comprehen­

sively governsall animal aspects icluding governing

veterinarian practice. Other than this effort, in order

to create favorable atmosphere in the implementa­

tion of husbandry and animal health, law enforce­

ment on security system shall be developed in the

form of imposition of penalty, either administrative

penaltyor crminal penaltyagainst anyaction that may

inflict loss to the Stateor interestof the people at large.

Establishment of this Lawshall alsoconsider Indone­

sian commitment to makeadjustment andequalization

tionalconvention. Forinstance, General Agreement on
